Kids Program

Only a Disney Cruise Line vacation gives families so many ways to play together, and separately. With practically an entire deck devoted to kids, there's non-stop fun each day from 9am to midnight for five distinct age groups. Kids ages 3 to 12 make magic at Disney's Oceaneer Club and explore the universe at Disney's Oceaneer Lab. Teens enjoy their own private hangout at Edge or Vibe.

Disney's Oceaneer Club and Disney's Oceaneer Lab (ages 3-10), Edge (ages 11-14), Vibe (ages 14-17)

While some activities are recommended for certain age groups, participation is based on a child's interest level and maturity—not age. As a result of this, siblings and friends can play together without restriction.

Only Disney can take little cruisers on a daily voyage to a world devoted to fun and fantasy. Disney's Oceaneer Club and Oceaneer Lab offer age-specific activities guaranteed to transport young minds to the edge of their imagination. Guided along the way by Disney counselors, of course. Parents sign their children in and out and, as an added convenience, parents are given pagers so families are always in touch. A sampling of available activities follows.
